Inside the Data Recovery Process
Data recovery often requires intricate procedures such as physical component repairs, firmware patching, and re-engineering of device control software. At Data Lab 247, our lab is equipped to handle a wide range of failures—from stuck read/write heads and clicking drives to damaged electronic components and corrupt or inaccessible volumes. We support all operating systems, virtual disk formats (including VMware and others), and encrypted drives or partitions.
